zantac
DS is 8wks and Dr, said he has acid reflux. I am to give him 1/4 tsp of mylanta after each feeding and two doses of zantac a day. How soon did you see an improvement once meds started, He was a happy baby and then this all of the sudden. mommy is going crazy with the constant crying. Just started meds this evening.

Re: zantac
Great, how long did your DR say your child would be on the meds?
I hate to see them in such pain!

my doctor said that by 6 months, the reflux goes away in most babies since their systems are more developed.
